Allow Setting Icons for Custom Platforms

LaunchBox for Windows

In the options for setting images for a custom platform, “Icon” isn’t available in the dropdown, and there doesn’t appear to be a way to define an icon used for the platform in the sidebar.

A means of defining an image as an icon for this use, or if this feature already exists, a more clear definition of where and how, would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi there. Thanks for the suggestion.

    If you have a LaunchBox premium license, you can change these icons for platforms, playlists and categories. I’m attaching a guide that shows how to do this:

    That said, we certainly take on board that this isn’t the easiest thing to discover, and it would be nice to be able to swap out icons in the UI. We currently don’t have any plans to overhaul this functionality, but we’ll certainly take onboard to make it clearer how to do this within the app.

    Thanks for the suggestion!

      Got it working, thanks. Definitely would be nice to have this do-able through the UI but as is, this works.
